According to witnesses, several explosions were heard in Sanaa after coalition forces targeted the Al- Siyana military compound, north of the capital, after a relative period of calm last night.

Al-Araby Al-Jadeed news site reported local sources in the Arhab province, north of Sanaa, as saying that the coalition forces have carried out a series of raids on the Asama and Alfrejh military camps yesterday morning and that smoke was seen rising.

Meanwhile, violent clashes continued in Marib between pro-government forces backed by the coalition, who besieged the area for two days, and Houthi rebels.

Several deaths and injuries were reported among Houthi rebels when pro-government popular resistance militants attacked their vehicle in Hajjah province, north-western Yemen.

Sources in the resistance who asked not to be named told Turkey’s Anadolu Agency that the popular resistance “had attacked a vehicle carrying a number of Houthis in the Hajjah province”.

On the other hand, a tribal source said Arab coalition forces launched several airstrikes on Houthi positions and those of forces loyal to ousted president Ali Abdullah Saleh in the Bayda governorate, central Yemen.
